How Can We Help?
Immanuel Journaling
Immanuel Journaling (IJ) is a writing exercise or practice that helps us to explore our life events, especially our interior life including our thoughts, feelings and body sensations with our good God, Immanuel. It is a simple process to help you become aware of God’s compassionate presence in the painful as well as mundane moments of your life.
Loppnow Relationship Center
The Loppnow Relationship Center offers individual, couples, parental, marriage and family counseling, among others, based on the truth that God's loving presence can bring healing, hope and strength to any situation and life. John and Sungshim Loppnow specialize in trauma resolution and brain-based relationship skills. Get in touch for more details.
Training & Resources
Presence + Practice seeks to promote healing and growth in life and relationship with God and others. Our goal is to equip people with the tools and methods to better experience God’s loving presence and to taste and see how good the Lord is.
Testimonials
“I am grateful for how I have grown closer to God through more consistent engagement, more intentional practice, and more specific understanding of how to interact better with Him.”
— C. B.
“The concepts and way of dialoguing with God made so much sense to me and allowed me to experience an intimacy with God that has been very significant to me. ”
— M. F.
“I’m slowly internalizing more deeply the truth of God’s love for me and delight in me. These tools in learning to attune with God are powerful.”
— K. G.
“Remembering God's good gifts to me has taken a new shift with the interactive gratitude 2.0 and the 'wonder' of why God would give me this gift / what struggle / longing was he seeing in me. 'That' has been like a window thrown wide open for me.”
— M. E.
We’ve designed a 7 Day IJ Training that is contained within an app. It is a lot of fun and a way to practice and build joy.
